First up, I'd like to say that I really enjoyed my first game of Inis yesterday!

There was however a question that came up several times. We wondered whether you can play an action card if you cannot perform one of the results. For example, with exploration: can you place a new tile if you don't have any clans in your reserve (the card states that you have to place one clan on the new tile)?

It is especially important for these mixed effect cards (because one of the effects is still important and advantageous), but it is also important because you could stall by playing cards, e.g. "new clans", even when they do not do anything for you.

Since I couldn't find anything in the rulebook about it, I assumed we were correct in that you can just play season cards when it is the season phase, irrespective of availability of clans/sanctuaries etc.
